The album was generally received well by critics. Writing for Pitchfork, Kim Kelly described it as "another impressive collection, one that's about as catchy as a pure black metal record has any right to be", and that the album features "some of Dagon’s best guitar work as he manipulates and torments his strings into all manner of eerie tones."
